General Instructions: 

Warning

 

Do not attempt to transfer the patient until  

all appropriate sling attachments are secured to 

the lift spreader bar and you are satisfied that the 

sling is the correct style, size and fit for the patient.
Correct sizing of a sling is important as a sling that is 

too large could cause the patient to slip through the 

aperture.
While every attempt is made to instruct a safe move 

you must conform to the current moving and handling 

procedures/regulations. If in any doubt, consult your 

Moving and Handling Advisor.

Service Label & Sling Checks:

All products should be checked each time they are 

used for any signs of deterioration. 
The service label is a visual guide to the product’s 

check. Please conduct a thorough sling check in line 

with current safety requirements in your country.   

If in doubt consult your distributor for current sling 

checking protocols.

A risk assessment must be carried out to ensure  

that the correct size and style of sling has been  

met before use.

Pre-use sling check list:
•  braiding/straps for deterioration and fraying
•  material for holes/snagging
•  compatibility with the lift
•  safe working load of both the lift and sling/ 

 

product (if applicable)

•  label is legible

Remove from use immediately if there are any signs 

of deterioration to the sling or straps or the label  

is illegible.

 

 

Washing Guidelines:

•  Follow laundry temperatures for washing and drying 

detailed on the product label.

•  Always ensure that all Hook & Loop fastenings are 

fully closed before washing.

•  All products should be laundered using non- 

biological detergents.

•  DO NOT IRON

Product Care:

•  Ensure that any Hook & Loop fastenings are closed 

when not in use. This will prevent unnecessary 

snagging of the sling material and prevent clogging 

of the Hook & Loop.

•  Launder regularly.
•  Store products in a suitable dry clean place.
•  Silvalea will accept no liability for any additions/

adaptations made to our products that have NOT 

been carried out by ourselves. Doing so may cause 

serious injury or death to the patient.

Drying Guidelines:

•  Follow the recommended drying temperatures  

as stated on product label.

•  Overheating a textile product can cause 

deterioration in the material components.

•  Do not place the product on a convector heater  

or steam pipes.
